Dear Friends & Cattleman, We thank you for your interest in our offerings. As you begin your sire selections we hope you’ll take the time to look over our catalog and view the videos of the bulls that we feel represent the type of bulls that the beef industry needs today. Keep in mind that videos are available online and you have the option to bid online with LiveAuctions.TV for your convenience. With preparations underway for our 15th annual bull sale, we can say without question that this is our best set of bulls and females from top to bottom. This sale includes a diverse genetic offering enhanced by genomic EPD’s. These bulls and females are the result of intense selections that include many factors that are overlooked today; they include fertility, soundness and performance, traits that you can never have too much of. With over 5 decades of ex-perience, we know these are the traits that lead to PROFIT. Of the many tools we have incorporated into the selection of bulls for this sale, we understand that the PAP scores are important to our customers who operate at high altitudes. The validity of the PAP scores is increased as the cat-tle offered through our sale are born on open pastures at 6,300 feet, graze in the summer on mountain pastures at 7,500 to 9,000 feet and are developed at 5,800 feet, just outside of Montrose. And what does this all mean for our customers who aren’t concerned with Brisket/High Altitude Disease? These animals will thrive anywhere, any ani-mals with heart or lungs defects have been eliminated and the performance of these animals has been achieved un-der the stress of altitude. We hope you’ll join us on Sunday, March 13th for lunch, friendship and a great sale. Please feel free to stop by before the sale to see our offering or give us a call; we are here to answer any questions you have.
Jeff, Kathi, Brandon & Britney Richard & Elaine
Our Sincere Appreciation to the Following Dr. Tim Holt, Fort Collins, CO for PAP testing our cattle.
Dr. David Kuntz for fertility, trich and BVD testing.

Over the years cattlemen have attempted to reduce the selection and the development
of cattle to numbers on a piece of paper. In reality there are numerous factors that
affect the production and performance of cattle. We believe that PAP scores are an
important selection tool but are often misunderstood. The registered bull business is
extremely competitive creating a “NUMBERS RACE”. Every breeder has a different
theory and philosophy regarding PAP scores. In all fairness to our customers who graze cattle at high altitude and those
who do not we want to share with you the facts:
Cattle at 6,000 or above feet are most at risk for “Brisket or High Altitude Disease”.
Cattle PAP tested at low elevations (less than 5000 feet) may have acceptably low scores at that time, but when re-
tested at higher elevations the score may increase. To increase the repeatability of the PAP test cattle should be
tested at 6,000 feet or higher and must be at that elevation for at least 3-6 weeks
44 and below – low risk
45 – 49 – moderate risk
50 and above – high risk
The PAP test can HELP determine which animals are most at risk for brisket disease or a possible genetic risk, de-
tecting the early stages of the problem, and elevated PAP measurement.
Interestingly, the problem sometimes appears in feedlot cattle, even at low elevations, as they get
heavier and closer to finish weight. This entire situation is not fully understood at this time but may
be related to growth, size and the body’s demand for more oxygen, because the heart must work harder.
A special thanks to Dr. Tim Holt for continually providing us with information and assistance in understanding High Altitude Disease and PAP measurements.
And congrats to him—2015 Zoetis Distinguished Teacher of the Year
PAP Measurements
Understanding Birth EPDs There’s not a single person out there who wants to spend every waking minute with their cows and assisting with births.
And in a search to reduce the labor and death loss of calving some producers have been selecting primarily for low-birth-
weight-EPD bulls. What we’ve noticed is that the birth EPD is NOT fully understood. So let’s take a look at what these
numbers actually mean…………….
An EPD is a prediction of the average progeny performance, not a guarantee. To demonstrate how birth weight EPDs
work, consider the following two bulls in Example 1.
Example: Birth weight EPD
EPD in pounds: Sire A +5.1 Sire B +1.2
The expected difference in the progeny of Sire A and Sire B for birth weight is 3.9 pounds. Sire A has an
EPD of +5.1 and Sire B has an EPD of +1.2. On the average, it would be expected that the calves from Sire
A would be 3.9 pounds heavier at birth than calves from Sire B. This is assuming that all calves are man-
aged uniformly and are from cows of similar genetic merit and age.
How one selects their bulls will more than likely change when an understanding of “Birth EDPs” is developed. Rather than
searching for the lowest birth EPD in the sale, we should compare the birth EPDs using the mathematical equation demon-
strated above.
Before heading off to the next bull sale an evaluation of your cow herd, including birth weights, calving issues is important
before selecting a bull, but don’t forget to look at all the traits! Selection based on a single trait can cost you performance
and money. We are in the beef business; there is no substitute for fertility, soundness and performance.
In the February 2012 edition of the Angus Beef Bulletin, American Angus Association Regional Manager, David Gazda,
“At the risk of being controversial, many of these small calf scenarios could be eliminated if the producers would simply be
willing to accept more birth weight, particularly when breeding mature cows. One only has to attend a production or test
station sale to witness firsthand how the heavier-birth-weight-EPD bulls are penalized and therefore sell at a substantial dis-
count. Have calving-ease and low-birth-weight EPDs been overemphasized to commercial producers? Maybe; maybe not.”
